I thought because of the cover that it wasn’t included in the same series, so I read it first. I’ve looked forward to each new installment since I read BREATHE, ANNIE, BREATHE back in 2014. This is it! The end of the Hundred Oaks series by Miranda Kenneally. I was literally squealing multiple times throughout Needless to say, sparks fly between the two boys and it was THE CUTEST. Kai is a closeted gay teen who really just wants to experience having a boyfriend and see what it’d be like to hang out with Bryson all week. He shows up late to school and royally messes up Kai’s morning, so he randomly spits out “date me, Bryson Keller” and to his surprise, Bryson says yes. He vows to date one person per week until spring break, based on whoever asks him out first on Monday morning. The story is about a dare that popular guy, Bryson Keller, takes on at the end of their senior year. I was able to sit down and read DATE ME, BRYSON KELLER in one sitting on a Monday night and it was exactly the kick in the pants I needed to read more and finish April stronger.


I’d been struggling with reading during quarantine (and honestly was behind on my challenge BEFORE too) so Chris suggested I take a break from the book that was taking me forever and putting me in a slump, and read something quick and fun. Enjoy the mini reviews! Oh man, this book was EXACTLY what I needed. My ARC reviews usually get the solo treatment. Sometimes they’re newer releases and sometimes they’re all backlist titles. In an effort to cut down on posts and burnout, my Review Roundups will feature 2-4 books I’ve read or listened to recently.
